Eyes Over the Waves

Eyes Over the Waves is the third mission of Metal Slug 3.

Mission Synopsis[]

Somewhere over the sea lies a tall Rebel factory that builds a wide assortment of vehicles. The heroes sneak inside by travelling underwater with their scuba gear. No matter what route they take the heroes are stopped by a giant security robot with glowing eyes.

Locations[]

The Sea: The open waters where a copious amount of Bull Chan are dropped to the sea floor. These carcasses generate explosive Sensor Mines. The bridge's support pillars that block the player's path have torpedo launchers.
Underwater Tunnel: The deepest waters protected by Rebel watercraft. The Slug Mariner is used here but be careful not to miss the jump to the Slug and fall in the water.
The Factory: A heavily protected building which the heroes start from the cellar up to the main plant. The Rebels are creating a new vehicle called the Rebel Armor. The player can hijack one of these vehicles and pilot it up to the boss. Both the Sea and Underwater routes lead here.
The Bridge: A quite deteriorated girder bridge high up from the waters. The Ostrich Slug is used to jump over the longer gaps.
Boiler Room: The Factory and Bridge routes lead to a chamber with a large pool of hot molten liquid underneath the grated platform. The Jupiter King is fought here.

Prisoner Locations[]
